Patent Claims
6 claims

Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.

5

5. The system of claim 4, wherein the logarithmic likelihood probability is a function of a known orientation angle of the first AP, an unknown orientation angle of the second AP, the known location of the first AP, and the known location of the second AP.

6

6. The system of claim 4, wherein the logarithmic likelihood probability is a function of a spherical harmonics function of a known orientation angle of the first AP and an unknown orientation angle of the second AP.

15

15. The method of claim 14, wherein the logarithmic likelihood probability is a function of a known orientation angle of the first AP, an unknown orientation angle of the second AP, the known location of the first AP, and the known location of the second AP.

16

16. The method of claim 14, wherein the logarithmic likelihood probability is a function of a spherical harmonics function of a known orientation angle of the first AP and an unknown orientation angle of the second AP.

20

20. The method of claim 11, wherein generating an output indicative of the orientation angle of the second AP comprises generating, for display on a user computing device, a virtual knob including an indication of the orientation angle of the second AP.

23

23. The method of claim 11, wherein generating an output indicative of the orientation angle of the second AP further comprises generating, for display on a user computing device and for each of a plurality of automatic AP orientation events, an AP identification, a previous AP orientation angle, and an updated AP orientation angle.
